Yo! Sushi Bar


Finally, we went to Yo! a Japanese sushi bar last Wednesday. I like the way they serve food. You can choose whatever you like from the selection on the coveyer belt in front of you. It makes more sense than reading the menu full of words and destriptions to a hungry person. At first, I thought it would be a great way of lossing weight as all the dishes come in small plates. The colour plate code system enables you to eat within your budget. After taking a number of different colour plates off the belt, I thought it was not going to work. You keep looking on the belt expecting to find something new while chewing and intend to try different dish whatever the plate colour is. I was stuffed when we started to count how many plates we had got.


I wonder why Japanese cuisine is much more expensive than Chinese. The Japanese food is claimed much healthier than Chinese dish. However, apart from the sushi, all other stuff are deep-fried which are not healthy at all. What's more, they came in smaller dish than Chinese. Probably, because of the strong Japanese economy or culture or service or whaterever.

Sushi is expensive because it is a culture. It is like Apple products. They are selling the image. Sushi, dim sim, I would go for the latter one, because deep inside the Japanese culture is in fact Chinese culture.

伦敦最好吃的日本店有两家,吃过这两家以后其它同类型的基本上可以不用去了。

第一家叫做 Sakura,在apple店附近,

9 Hanover Street, London, W1S 1YF

里面什么都有,很传统的日本店,鱼生和寿司是现点现做,鱼肉非常新鲜,还有日式火锅和各种各样的小菜,如烤三文鱼头。饭和面条也都不错,价格适中,就是平时晚上7点以后人多了些,要排队,周末中午去比较好。


第二家叫做 KuluKulu,回转寿司,用料和口味比起yo sushi之类的连锁店好很多,价格比yo sushi便宜一点。店里有一个奇怪的规定,繁忙时间只准坐45分钟。但店里一般都不是很繁忙。

76 Brewer Street, Piccadilly Circus, London, W1F 9TU
